This week eLuxury will donate 5% of their online sales to cancer research with the entry of this discount code. At checkout, enter 5rfh and the money will be donated to Run For Her--an organization that helps raise awareness about ovarian cancer and the research efforts to discover a cure. Above, we picked out five items, all around $200, that we recommend. Just because you're on a budget doesn't mean you can't give back and these items, whether worn as an outfit, or individually, are the perfect way to do both.
Fassonaburu Shoutout: Lillies of The Valley
March 17, 2008 · 1 Comment
Spring may be the most cliché laden of the seasons. Its hard not to wax poetic about the rebirth and renewal of the Earth when you have been slogging through mud, slush or just plain gray days for months on end. Even the least connected of mankind feels a sense of hope. Fassonaburu's longing for a James Perse full length tank dress for tip toeing around the tulips triggered an impulse in us to go browsing for long lean day dresses as the weather warms. This of course naturally landed us smack dab in the middle of Rick Owen's lilies collection to find his perfect jersey tube dress.
And it was there we realized just how much the collection speaks to our own hidden hopes and dreams for spring. Light, draped, and worn fabric hints at the struggles of surviving darker days. A less designer would have gone for color, but his somber pallet of grays makes us that much more hopeful. The light fabrics and the dark colors have us dreaming of misty mornings before perfect spring days. We leave you with our favorite spring ditty. We imagine ourselves clothed in Rick Owens traisping through our garden as dawn hits looking for fairies and loving the slender lilies both on ourselves and in the ground.
White coral bells upon a slender stalk Lillies of the valley grace my garden walk Oh how I wish that you could hear them ring That will only happen when the fairies sing.
